Abstract
Konsep The Tantri stories are ancient animal tales known for centuries throughout Asia (as the panchatantra) which have historical connections to Aesop’s fables. In Bali the tales were popularized in wayang kulit (shadow puppet) form by the Balinese dalang (shadow-master) I Wayan Wija in the 1980s. Wayang (‘shadow’) Kulit (‘skin’) are flat leather puppets made from carved and painted rawhide. The wayang kulit form as it is performed on the islands of Java and Bali in Indonesia is at least 1000 years old and may have historical connections to shadow puppet forms known in India. The stories are primarily drawn from the Hindu Mahabharata and Ramayana but also include local legends (babad) and tales such as the Tantri stories. Wayang Kulit is a sacred genre, performed for special ceremonies and in the inner courtyards of Balinese temples. However, it is also mass entertainment and besides philosophical and religious instruction, wayang also includes a healthy dose of bawdy humor and manic fight scenes.
